Released in 1979, it sits comfortably in the period when jazz players were widening their sound for dancefloor-friendly audiences without losing instrumental sophistication. The set moves between driving rhythms, glossy keyboard textures and easy melodic hooks, with songs such as Do It and So In Love With You pointing to its crossover appeal. As a genre-blending LP, it captures the moment when jazz, funk and disco were converging into a smoother, more accessible style.
